time, from your own home – all from the industry’s leading experts.
Have you always wanted to be “the
BOSS?”
Are you a media creator, entrepreneur,
or professional looking to earn or supplement a livable income without giving
your time, money, and intellectual rights to a major corporation, label,
publisher, or any other gatekeeper?
If this is your dream – it’s now only
one click away!
Our Blockbuster Online Success
System (BOSS) will show you absolutely everything you need to know to
build a successful online presence and potentially earn a huge income right now.
We have gathered over 30 industry
leaders and online success stories for three preview calls, ten ground-breaking webinar classes, and
three bonus classes
focused on your online media success.
That’s
16 sessions with over 30 hours of original course material from
EXPERTS
that you can
view from the comfort of your own home (or anywhere), at any time.
Each online webinar is
offered in a fully-immersive learning environment including links,
graphics, audio, and video.
All classes are SAVED, so you can
listen at ANYTIME.
HERE
IS WHAT YOU GET: 
How does one separate true media
experts from all the self-proclaimed “gurus” out there?
Scratch the surface of many of today's self-proclaimed
"gurus," and you will find they lack experience, endorsements, and client testimonials.
Experts, on the other hand, have significant real-world experience in their field,
solid endorsements from respected peers, and grateful praise from a lifetime of satisfied customers.
A "New
Media" expert - for 20 years!
 In
1994, when I joined Reuters, I was one of the youngest vice-presidents in
the company.
I was eager to prove that the internet (still new at that time) had
made sharing information and content incredibly fast, simple, and profitable -
even for the world's largest news agency!
That’s why I helped them pioneer the syndication technology that enabled
them - and you - to share information instantly with incredible results.
I then founded a company called Kinecta, where as CEO, I raised $30 million in
under 2 years from investors such as Canaan Partners, Fidelity, Reuters, and
Adobe.
Kinecta was acquired by Stellent in 2002, which was acquired by Oracle in 2004
for $440 million.
At Reuters, Kinecta, and now Be The Media, my mission is to
help you widely distribute your products,
services, and messages.
Why? Because I want YOU to have the same power, reach,
and immediacy of the world's largest news agency.
Get
results FAST - learn from the experts!
You can be confident that all the knowledge in this system
will give you results, whether you want to become an in-demand,
highly-paid keynote speaker or a successfully published author, musician, or
filmmaker.
More than 30 EXPERT faculty members will teach you the
secrets of their online success. They're the BEST in their fields.
In one complete online
webinar success system, together we'll teach you how to build an audience, earn more
revenues, and achieve independent success.
Key things you will learn:
How to reach a massive online audience who will love and buy your work.
How to create a professional online presence that will effectively build your
brand.
How to become a master at social networking sites Twitter, Facebook, and
LinkedIn.
How you can be the media creator, entrepreneur, writer, speaker, musician,
filmmaker, or broadcaster you always wanted to be – at almost no cost to you.
How to earn a recession-proof livable income with only 1000 fans (customers,
patrons, or friends).
How to work independently: being your own boss while owning your intellectual
property.
Online reputation and brand management, or how to present yourself as an expert
and monitor what others are saying about you.
How to work SMART instead of working hard with proven time management and
metrics tools and techniques.

to compensate a full-time employee or paying out benefits and overhead
expenses.

"In the rapidly changing landscape of how we connect with people, and thus
get our message out to the world, there are few equals - if any - to David
Mathison.
He's the real deal.
David delivers content on all levels;
providing tangible tools that you can immediately apply, and resources that
you can immediately benefit from.
As a management consultant for almost
twenty-years, and an amateur filmmaker for almost five; David's book, online
radio blog, and Social Media seminars have profoundly impacted me and how I
conduct my business.
Buy his book, listen to his radio show, and
attend every seminar he teaches - you will benefit far more then my words

Here is what you get
Back to Top
What is the investment?
Individually I offer each course for $199, so the list price for all ten
webinars is $1,999.
The first semester was offered live in November 2010 for a $500
discount, or $1,499.
The archived version of these courses will soon be sold for $999.
For a limited time, I am offering
the archives of all ten courses from November 2010, plus three
preview calls, and three bonus classes -
for a total of 16
classes and more than 30 hours of original material
- - -
- - - for only $499!
That’s a $1,500 savings, and a huge discount from my one-hour public presentation, for which I
usually charge $5000.
I spent my hard-earned money - and
many years on research - so you don't have to!
In my research for my book and this course, I spent lots of
money and many years evaluating online success case studies of businesses and
people who have used the internet to establish independent success.
They ran the gamut from prestigious Ivy League
academics to indie musicians, and even grassroots activists and politicians.
 I revealed this information in my book
BE THE MEDIA, which was featured on the
front page of the New York Times Business Section after I pre-sold 5,000 copies
to only one follower via Twitter, Facebook, and my blog.
Even
though the book was over 500 pages long, I STILL couldn’t fit all the
information I wanted to about online media success.
So I went
on a speaking tour, giving presentations from the United Nations (three times in
2010 alone) to Columbia University, from Berlin to Cairo.
Even
though I was often paid $5000 per gig, I still felt like I was only scratching
the surface in my one-hour presentations.
I practice what I preach
When I built my new publishing business for Be The Media, I could have used the “traditional” model. After all,
I previously raised $30 million in venture and strategic funding, with no sweat.
But that would mean finding investors, setting up a board, and basically
losing control of my business.
More importantly, it was essential for me to prove out this new, independent, online model I
had developed; where you own your own work, and get to choose your ideal
customers and partners.
That’s why you know that everything in the Blockbuster Online Success System has
been extensively tried and tested, and WORKS.
Who is eligible to enroll?
Anyone with a talent, skill,
experience, message, or dream who finally wants to make a living doing
what they love – without having to sell your soul to the failed traditional
business model!
Anyone who wants to absolutely
master the online game to reach more fans and make more sales.
Anyone who wants to be their own
boss, only do the work they love to do, and keep all of their
intellectual property rights.
No risk, money-back GUARANTEE
I believe
so strongly that our Blockbuster Online Success System will
provide you with a thorough, quality education in online media, that I am
offering a full 60 day no-risk money back guarantee. If you are unhappy for any
reason, I will refund the full price of the course with no questions asked.
So there is nothing to lose, and a whole world of online media success to
gain!
Best of
all, you can listen anywhere and at any time: all the classes will be archived
for you for FREE.

I'll only be offering this discounted $499 price for a limited
time, so be sure to enroll right away and lock in your savings.

"I
just finished an intensive 3-part training with David Mathison on tactics
and strategies for increasing your following on Twitter, Facebook and
LinkedIn.
Inspired by David's book, Be the Media, which I refer to regularly, I was
looking forward to connecting with him in these courses.
David
is a great speaker, a motivating teacher, and really shares lots of
information in his courses, all the while helping students to grasp the
larger picture of how to piece it all together into an effective plan.
More
than that, unlike in other trainings I've taken, David has helped me to
think comprehensively about the power and potential of social media, and how
to engage effectively.
And not of least importance is that David delivers all this information in a
friendly, sincere and supportive manner, is patient, and has incredible
enthusiasm for people's projects and mission."
